The energy sector is playing a vital role in Egypt's economy. However, the Egyptian government currently faces a real challenge to make a strategic choice between satisfying the ever increasing national primary energy demand (depending by more than 94% on oil and gas) that is being offered to end-users with subsidized prices, and maintaining a certain level of hard currency revenues from oil and gas exports at world prices, even with a growing risk of accelerated depletion rates of national proven reserves.
For the electricity sector, the load and energy demand grows by more than 10 % per year where the load is expected to reach 39703MW and the energy 220450 GWh by year 2020.

Meeting the ever increasing demand on electricity with a high degree of reliability and sustainability has been one of the main issues addressed by the strategy developed and implemented by the Ministry of Electricity and Energy.
The Egyptian Electricity sector has adopted strong measures in order to improve energy efficiency at both the supply and demand sides, this resulted in reducing the overall average specific fuel consumption from 340 gm to 221 gm of oil equivalent per kWh, reducing losses from 18 % to11.5% in 2004/2005. Comparable efforts have been conducted on the demand side to effectively utilize the electrical energy.
Egypt has traditionally been using large amounts of renewable energy, especially hydropower, to generate electricity. In recent times the use of wind, solar and biomass energy has contributed to electricity production. However, at present, almost 87% of the total generated electricity origins from fossil sources with 80 % natural gas , 12% from Hydro and 0.7% from wind , a rate which will increase in future due to continuing high rates of demand growth.
• For renewable energies a share of 20% on the energy production by 2020
• For energy efficiency the objective was defined to save 20% of today’s consumption by 2020.
The national strategy for Egypt’s power sector includes among others the following:
• Optimize use of available energy sources and minimize environment pollution
• Provide electricity with minimum price and best quality• Restructure electricity sector to optimize investments
and improve electrical services• Utilize modern and sophisticated technical systems in
electricity sector's operation and activities• Develop the expertise and skills of engineers and
technicians working in the electricity sector.• Energy Efficiency Improvement
As continuation of the electricity sector efforts, the Energy Efficiency Improvement & Greenhouse Gas Reduction (EEIGGR) Project,
was decided in 1998, fits very well into this strategy:
• The Project with the overall objective to reduce the long-term growth of greenhouse gas emissions from electric power generation and from consumption of non-renewable fuel resources is mainly based upon higher efficiency of equipment in the sector and better know-how of the professional staff through capacity building and learning.
• The Project’s aims were specifically to assist Egypt in loss reduction in the electricity transmission system and in load management, enhance the end-use efficiency by market incentives and provide further information and support for co-generated electricity.
This GEF project shall be vital to the achievement of such goals.The program presents an integrated effort focusing on electricity consumption. Given the current shortage of capacity in addition to the reduction of electricity consumption and thus C02 emissions the government of Egypt through the Ministry of Electricity and Energy has an additional strong interest in these activities as an effort to curb the growth in load.The program covers the technologies of:
• Energy efficient lighting (mainly CFL lamps but also modern lamps for street lighting)

Study recommendations: Short term recommendations:Appointment of an energy manager for each governmental building in addition to awareness programsMedium term recommendations : Implementing retrofits of the current governmental building facilities especially for the lighting system, in addition of improving power factor for these buildings. Long term recommendations: Developing governmental procurement guidelines to take into consideration energy efficiency concept. This stage will rely on the results and experience gained from the medium term recommendations.
• The Ministry of Electricity and Energy has taken the initiative of starting by its own buildings.
• The electricity distribution companies started already implementing energy efficiency measures in their administrative buildings where real savings have been achieved
